Liam : "I can't believe I've never been here before"

Zayn : "me neither"

Liam : "are you okay?"

Zayn : (snaps) "I'm fine"

Liam : (takes phone out of pocket) (stares at screen) "Louis just texted me"

Zayn : (perks up) "what did he say?"

Liam : "uhh..well that he's thinking of Dan with a dick in his mouth"

Zayn : "Dan? As in his step dad?"

Liam : "unless you know another Dan"

Zayn : "he went home?"

Liam : "yeah didn't he tell you?"

Zayn : "obviously not Liam god you're so stupid"

Liam : (rolls eyes) "well I guess he didn't tell you who he took with him either?"

Zayn : (eyes widen) "who did he take?"

Liam : "Harry"

Zayn : (disgusted) "why would he take Harry?"

Liam : "they're on a date"

Zayn : (angry) (stumbles off stool pushing it over) "this isn't fucking happening!"

Liam : "Zayn please calm yourself we can get kicked out"

Zayn : "ask me if I give a motherfuck?"

Liam : "the one night I come to a bar and you act like this"

Zayn : "I'm sorry it's so bad for you Liam other people just have to deal with ex boyfriends and his groupies"

Liam : "I don't get what's the big deal. You act like you're over him when he's around and when he's not you're like Romeo crying out for Juliet"

Zayn : "you don't fucking understand. You should count yourself lucky I'm even here with your lying ass"

Liam : "what me and Louis had was casual like you had with Nick"

Zayn : "Nick that swine he was meaningless beside I know you have feelings for Louis"

Liam : (stunned) "I-I..W-What?"

Zayn : "you can't even deny it!"

Liam : "this isn't about me"

Zayn : "you fucked my man of course it is about you"

Liam : "except he isn't yours anymore. You gave that up the day you took that ring off your finger"

Zayn : "oh fuck off!"

Liam : "it's not nice being on this side is it? Imagine how he felt"

Zayn : "don't even go there"

Liam : "I will because I've been with Louis long enough to know how miserable he is because of you"

Zayn : (defeated) "it's not supposed to happen this way"

Liam : (softens) "hey don't cry I'm sorry"

Zayn : "no you're right. Everyone's right. I just..I'm so confused Liam. I love him"
